Hip-hop gave me purpose at a very young age. I remember breakdancing on cardboard when I was 8. By the time I was 11 I discovered Run-D.M.C At 14 I started making my own records and DJ'n house parties.
At 18 I got my first studio & learned to become a mix / master engineer. By my early 20s I had quit my day job & dedicated my life to rap.

Fast forward over 20 years later, with the help of an amazing group of people i managed to build EMPIRE into the global giant it is today. To be mentioned in article with these titans is nothing short of surreal & humbling. I want to say thank you to everybody who has been on this journey with me.

Special S/O to my brother for life @nima_empire for being right there with me 🤞🏼

Thank you & happy 50th HipHop • I am forever grateful 🙏🏼

Baba I hope I made you proud 🖤

PS I'mfrom the BAY BIIITTCCCHH

(not so) secret’s out 🥹

all those years of writing songs in my bedroom, recording until sunrise, believing in what i heard in my heart long before the world fully listened… it all led me here!!

i’ve officially signed to a US label 🤍 thank you, @empire 🩶

coming from tondo, philippines, i never imagined the little girl making music out of instinct and pure love would one day find herself here. no shortcuts, no easy path… no nepotism (lol) 😂 just years of choosing to create through every high and low.

being one of the first and few homegrown filipina artists signed to a major US label is proof that filipino artistry deserves space on the global stage exactly as we are.

there were moments where being misunderstood could’ve made me less sure of myself. but when you dedicate your life to the work, eventually the music speaks louder than the noise around it.

thank you to everyone who believed in me before any of this looked possible. from barely full to sold out rooms, everyone who stayed and listened carried me farther than you’ll ever know.

@johnvince thank you for carrying a vision far bigger than yourself and for trusting me enough to become part of it. the patience, dedication, and belief in both me and filipino artistry changed my life forever. despite every hurdle and difference, we manage to come above everything and anything with love. ❤️

@dbly5 thank you for for being one of the first people to believe in me and opening my eyes to a completely different world outside my own, whether it was through music or life. moving to the states was never the easiest but im grateful that everyday i continue to learn (from) and laugh (with or at) you. 😂❤️

@kimburlieanne God gave you at the exact moment i was praying for a woman’s guidance and place in the team 🥹 family truly isn’t always the one you’re born into but the one placed into your life when you need it most! thank you for making living feel easier. i don’t know what i’d do without you. 🫀

thank you @ghazi @nima_empire and the entire EMPIRE team for believing in me and in the future of filipino artistry.

this is only the beginning.

WE JUST MADE HISTORY BABYYYY 🇵🇭

all those years of writing songs in my bedroom, recording until sunrise, believing in what i heard in my heart long before the world fully listened… it all led me here!!

i’ve officially signed to a US label 🤍 thank you, @empire 🩶

coming from tondo, philippines, i never imagined the little girl making music out of instinct and pure love would one day find herself here. no shortcuts, no easy path… no nepotism (lol) 😂 just years of choosing to create through every high and low.

being one of the first and few homegrown filipina artists signed to a major US label is proof that filipino artistry deserves space on the global stage exactly as we are.

there were moments where being misunderstood could’ve made me less sure of myself. but when you dedicate your life to the work, eventually the music speaks louder than the noise around it.

thank you to everyone who believed in me before any of this looked possible. from barely full to sold out rooms, everyone who stayed and listened carried me farther than you’ll ever know.

@johnvince thank you for carrying a vision far bigger than yourself and for trusting me enough to become part of it. the patience, dedication, and belief in both me and filipino artistry changed my life forever. despite every hurdle and difference, we manage to come above everything and anything with love. ❤️

@dbly5 thank you for for being one of the first people to believe in me and opening my eyes to a completely different world outside my own, whether it was through music or life. moving to the states was never the easiest but im grateful that everyday i continue to learn (from) and laugh (with or at) you. 😂❤️

@kimburlieanne God gave you at the exact moment i was praying for a woman’s guidance and place in the team 🥹 family truly isn’t always the one you’re born into but the one placed into your life when you need it most! thank you for making living feel easier. i don’t know what i’d do without you. 🫀

thank you @ghazi @nima_empire and the entire EMPIRE team for believing in me and in the future of filipino artistry.

this is only the beginning.

WE JUST MADE HISTORY BABYYYY 🇵🇭
